My lazy weekend didn't happen. First I took the ladies shopping and went to the local market. Since it had been dry the last few days I decided to clean and rig my parachute. That's when Edward and Wallis arrived. Edward had graduated from the Parachute School Friday but since it is now a three week course there's no rigging course. So he received some training on how to pack a parachute while I told him about the FTX. After lunch we drove to Irvine's 'estate' and we helped in the garden until it started getting dark. Afterwards we spent the evening in the hotel.
Sunday morning I helped Sally and Mum prepare the roast. Actually I peeled the potatoes then cleaned and cut the Brussels sprouts. I also wrote a letter to Wilhelm Canaris and included invitations for him, Guderian and Rommel with spouses to my wedding party on the 16th of November. One week later than originally planned. I included a couple of photos of me posing with my car carrying a Thompson SMG and wearing an Italian style suit. My Al Capone photos.
I went to the HQ in the afternoon as planned and after an hour I was satisfied with the reports I have. General Gort was also there so we had a chance to compare notes. Edward arrived and spent time in the map room where he could study our plans. It was approaching 18:00 so I called home and told Sally that General Gort, Edward and I will be visiting the hotel if they, Sally and Wallis, wished to join us. Irvine and Lucy were also there with Luigi. General Gort had already told me that Luigi's status will be clarified during the coming week. We didn't stay long because it will be a long day tomorrow.
